I have a slight smell of gas in my oil in my new 85.5 944. Is thing going to be ok ? Im going to try to put a high mileage oil in with a can of Lubo Moly motor oil saver. Any other suggestions or thoughts ?

how many miles? do you only notice it during cold starts?

147k I just got it yesterday. Ive havent had it warmed up yet and it did sit for a long peroid.

oil prolly needs a change, warm it up after and see how it smells later

Changed oil and filter, 50 or less miles on 'em

maybe just needs to be warm then.

Hey...don't forget its a 20+ year old car...there will be blowback and some seepage past the rings, and fuel mixing with the oil. Also, your FPR could be wonky and you are running too rich...check your tailpipe for sooty deposits...that will tell the tale.

Sorry to keep jumping in on this Wizzie.
The FPR is used/new so it's fully operational unlike the other one, but I did change it after I changed the oil.

Keep jumping in as much as possible LOL. You know this car better then me and your input is very helpful.
